1Then Moses assembled all the congregation of the sons of Israel and said to them, “These are the things that Yahweh has commanded to be done.”

2Work may be done for six days, but on the seventh day there shall be for you a holy Sabbath, a complete rest to Yahweh. Whoever does work on it shall surely be put to death.

3You shall not kindle a fire in any of your dwellings on the Sabbath day.
